Friends Are Always
Chapter 3 – Walls...
Z and Sky watched the kids at the junior high Commander Cruger had assigned them, swinging on the swing set. Z looked up at the sky and saw the dark clouds subsiding, revealing the blue sky above them.
"Sky?" she said. He looked at her.
"Yeah, Kiddo?" he questioned.
"Ever wonder why you're the blue ranger?" she asked.
"Each and everyday," he sighed. "Why?"
"Do you think it has something with your name being Sky and the sky is blue?" she questioned him. He looked at her and then where her gaze had lingered to the sky.
"That's an interesting concept, but it's not very logical," he said, looking back at the clouds.
"Sky, not everything is logical! Gees!" she exclaimed, looking at him. "What are you an atlas?"
"I think the word you're looking for is almanac," he said. "And no, I am not an almanac." Silence soon filled the air and the bell finally rang ending their day and interrupting their comfortable silence they used to cool down.
Jack and Syd walked over to them.
"Hey you two!" Syd greeted.
"Hey," Z and Sky said in unison glumly.
"Have fun?" Jack asked.
"Yeah, can we leave, Babe?" Z asked.
"Sure," Jack said. Jack followed Z.
"What was that about?" Syd asked Sky, pulling a stray curl behind her ear.
"Nothing," Sky said. "We should probably be heading back too." Syd nodded as Sky took her hand and they walked to his bike.
